Verse 1

Children behave

That's what they say when we're together

And watch how you play

They don't understand and so we're

Runnin' just as fast as we can

Holdin' on to one another's hand

Tryin' to get away into the night

And then you put your arms around me as we tumble to the ground

And then you say:

Chorus

I think we're alone now

There doesn't seem to be anyone around

I think we're alone now

The beating of our hearts is the only sound

(heartbeat and crickets)

Verse 2

Look at the way

We gotta hide what we're doin'

'Cause what would they say

If they ever knew and so we're

Runnin' just as fast as we can

Holdin' on to one another's hand

Tryin' to get away into the night

And then you put your arms around me as we tumble to the ground

And then you say:

(repeat chorus)

(more heartbeat and crickets)

Outro

I think we're alone now

There doesn't seem to be anyone around (repeat to fade)
